Though Willie did not elaborate on the details his important announcement, he did reveal that January 5 might be his last day on the show and that he had already said his goodbyes to the TV5 management. “Sa lahat ng aking staff, mga dancers, basta kayo ay maghanap-hanap na ng dapat ninyong puntahan. Ia-announce ko kung bakit, kung anong rason. Basta malalaman ninyo… January 5,” he said. “Pero magmula ngayong araw hanggang sa Pasko po, magbibigay ako ng todo-todong papremyo sa inyo—'yung mga huling araw ko dito. Akala ninyo nagbibiro ako? Seryoso ako... may huling araw po ako dito—January 5 (To all my staff and my dancers, you should start looking for another job. I’ll announce the reason why, you’ll know it on January 5. But from today until Christmas, I’ll be giving away so many prizes to you—these are my last days here. You think I’m kidding? I’m serious… January 5 is going to be my last day on this show.).”
